Oyster Report

Moon Shoal
Harvest Location:
Barnstable, MA
Farmer:
John Martin

How they are grown:
These oysters begin in a rack and bag system until 2 inches. Then spend the rest of their grow out in trays constructed from lobster cages.

 How they taste:
In fusion of freshwater decreases the salinitiy, while lending a smooth buttery finish.


Aphrodites
Harvest location:
South Thomaston, ME

Farmer:
Krista Tripp

How they are grown:
Aphrodite oysters are grown in bags or cages that float on top the water, where there is the highest concentration of food so they have plenty to eat. If you've ever gone swimming in Maine during the summer you know it is COLD! The colder the water the slower the oyster growth and that is why these beautiful oysters can take up to 3 years to reach market size [the patience pays off!

 How they taste:
Being located at the mouth of Weskeag River, Krista's grant reaps the benefits of the colder waters coming in at every high tide. Clean, crisp, and briny with a fresh umami finish.

Chelsea Gems
